DennisChristensen Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Hi Forum I have problems finding a way to disable creation of backup folders. Am I just blind :-) Best Regards Dennis Christensen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orbs Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 @DennisChristensen, if you refer to the subfolder "BackUp" that is created when you use the Tidy utility on a script, then this cannot be disabled, but you can create a dedicated folder and redirect all the backed-up files to it, so it won't clutter your work folders. see Help > SciTE Help > Contents tab > Extra Utilities > Tidy , scroll down to Setting Tidy's options (Tidy.ini) and put the parameter backupDir into use.

water Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 In addition you could reduce the number of backup files to keep by setting "/kv n". If n is set to 0 then all versions are kept.
